Tarsier Studios has released version 1.06 of Reanimal, bringing a significant number of fixes to the adventure-horror game across all platforms on March 18.

Console gamers will see this patch as Reanimal update 1.000.006, and this is a small download that fixes some of the disconnect issues players have been experiencing, and more importantly, the soft lock bugs that have plagued players since release.

For the complete list of changes and improvements made, read on.

Reanimal Soft Lock and Disconnect Issues Resolved via Update 1.000.006/1.06

Reanimal Update 1.005

Before diving into the fixes, note that some contain spoilers!

The main change in this patch is that Tarsier has disabled the disconnect code in the game, which means that disconnects will hopefully happen less frequently. The devs add, “However, this does mean that when playing on a bad network with high ping / packet loss you might experience desyncs, slow response and potentially game breaking bugs.”

Soft lock fixes

  • In certain situations the player couldn’t interact with the whale
  • In certain situations the player could be stuck behind a blocking volume in Hospital
  • In certain situations the player character would freeze when entering the barn
  • In certain situations the player could get stuck after interacting with the binoculars
  • When loaded a checkpoint in tank section sometimes resulted in the players not connecting properly in online play
  • Sometimes the player would get killed by the underwater brookhorse too soon
  • NPC could sometimes fail to sit down in the bus towards orphanage
  • Fixed being unable to climb back up an edge in the gas station area

Crashes

  • Crash could occur during tank chase
  • When shooting the other player, in the hanging soldier room, the game could crash and prevent the player from getting an achievement

Other

Improved overall game stability and fixed several crashes.

    • Improved companion AI navigation and fixed cases where companions could fail to follow the player.
    • Fixed camera behavior during certain gameplay moments and cinematic transitions.
    • Resolved issues where music or ambient sounds could continue playing incorrectly.
    • General gameplay polish and minor bug fixes.
  • Resolved multiple online co-op issues, including cases where players could become stuck or desynchronized.
  • Fixed various visual glitches, including clipping and animation issues.
  • Fixed an issue where the sheep beast’s fur disappeared at times
  • Fixed small freezes during the car segment
  • Fixed water textures before the whale quest
  • Fixed an out of bounds area in the orphanage
